Manchester City Goal Stopper and Brazil international Ederson will become the most hated player after he is set to Complete a shocking move to Saudi Arabia Club
Ederson, the Manchester City goalkeeper, is said to have agreed to personal terms with one of Saudi Arabia’s greatest teams after being given a magnificent two-year deal.
The 30-year-old Brazil international, who joined City from Benfica in 2017 for about £35 million, has played almost 300 games for the Premier League winners.
During that period, he won six league titles, two FA Cups, and the Champions League under Pep Guardiola, whom Ederson recently praised as football’s best coach.
“Pep is equivalent to a GPS,” he explained. “You enter the address, and it shows you the possibilities, including the best one for us. Then you simply follow, follow, follow.
“Pep is the finest ever, and I believe he lives football 24 hours a day. It’s incredible.”
After seven trophy-laden seasons in Manchester, it suddenly appears that the Brazilian shot-stopper may depart England this summer.
According to writer Gianluigi Longari, Ederson has agreed to personal terms with Saudi Pro League club Al Nassr, and discussions will now begin with Manchester City.
Al Nassr is now looking for a new goalkeeper after David Ospina, the club’s first choice shot-stopper, left at the conclusion of his contract.
Unsurprisingly, they are willing to spend the money to make it happen.
According to Cesar Luis Merlo, Al Nassr has presented a proposition to Ederson for €60 million [£51 million] over two years, which equates to about £490,000 each week.
Last summer, Al Nassr signed several players, including Otavio, Sadio Mane, Aymeric Laporte, Seko Fofana, Marcelo Brozovic, and Alex Telles.
However, Mane might be on his way out this summer. According to the Daily Mail, Al Nsssr would consider bids for the former Liverpool and Bayern Munich attacker.
In turn, they are considering a move for Aston Villa’s Moussa Diaby as a possible replacement. Diaby was linked with a transfer to Saudi Arabia before joining the Premier League for a whopping £51.9 million.
